Carlisle finally introduced

After a lengthy, negotiating process, Rick Carlisle was finally introduced as the Dallas Mavericks' ninth head coach Wednesday at American Airlines Center.Much of the talk about Carlisle's hiring centered around how he would fit with Jason Kidd, but he sounded excited about the chance to coach the perennial All-Star."I see Jason [Kidd] as a guy who can run a team...He's one of the real winners in the history of the game," Carlisle said.
